Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work
Kyrgyzstan’s government launched two new trade and logistics centers in the Osh region with funding from the World Bank.
The Ministry of Water Resources, Agriculture and Processing Industry of Kyrgyzstan, working with the Ministries of Economy and Commerce and Finance, completed the centers as part of the “Regional Economic Development of Osh Region and Osh City” project. Eco Azyk LLC operates the first center in Kenesh village, focusing on value-added berry products.
Asia Organics LLC manages the second center in Toloykon village, which specializes in quick-freezing and storing berries and fruits. These centers aim to reduce losses from seasonal crops and improve how agricultural products are stored and processed. The government expects these facilities to help local farmers save more of their harvest and increase the country’s ability to export processed agricultural goods.
The project operates through several agencies including the Community Development and Investment Agency, the Agribusiness Competitiveness Center, and State Financial Holding OJSC.
